    Update II: Panzer III paint.

    Hi there,

    I had time this afternoon to shoot some pictures of the Panzer III after the paintsession. Unfortunately the decals are not in yet, but there’s enough to do, so no problem.

    The Panzer III has Vallejo black primer, AK’s “red primer modulation set” is the first paintcoat, after which AK’s Heavy Effects Fluid (# AK-089) is airbrushed to make chipping easier later on. Basic color is Vallejo Dark Yellow (# 71.025), camo is done with Vallejo Camouflage Light Green (# 71.006). Decals (which are, as mentioned, not used yet) are by Bison. The Panzer III represents the 2nd division:


    Famo & Sd. Ah.116 + Panzer III ausf.L: 10-06 Done - Page 2 Tekening2ediv
    I know, this is a J......

    AK’s “Heavy Worn Effects Fluid” is used to create scratches and worn off paint. I’m not satisfied with the end result. According to what I’d heard, the Fluid can be diluted with water. The consequences of this, was that the Fluid was not spread evenly, therefore the basecoat either dissolved to fast or not at all. Because I learned that the ausf. L of the 2nd Panzerdivision at the time of the battle for Kursk were fairly new, I wanted to keep the chipping pretty sober, but this didn’t work as well as I wanted. Furthermore the protecting lacquer coating didn’t work: at some points the paint came off completely Rolling Eyes ... Anyway, the endresult is not too bad. Hopefully with some corrections the damage will be minimal...

    The results so far:

    Good work!

    I really love the camo you have chosen for the panzer. Nice weathering!
    I think the contrast between the panzer and the grey of the Famo ''float'' is awsome Smile

    @ Johannes, Stephane, Bugbear and Tomek: thanks for your kind words!

    I'm not really satisfied with the chipping, but with washes, filters, mud, blankets and what not, there's a lot I can disguise.

    Hello Richard!

    Really good job. I like the Famo and the trailer very much. Very nice effects. As you said yourself, i think some of the chips on the Panzer III are too big. But it´s always hard to tell in the middle of the weathering stages.

    I´ll follow your next steps.

    Well done

    @ Alex, Elco, Diego and Maarten: thanks for your kind words.

    Right now I'm working on the diorama, mainly on the bridge. It takes a lot of time to build- and weather it. After that: figures and finishing the verhicles by implementing them in the scene.

    Thanks Mac Wink !

    Update III: diorama.

    Hello all,

    The time since the last update I spend working on the diorama. First phase always is the planning phase: how do the lines and the elements in the dio relate to each other. In short, I visualize on paper and in 3D what’s in my head:

    Famo & Sd. Ah.116 + Panzer III ausf.L: 10-06 Done - Page 2 Dsc00622gc

    Famo & Sd. Ah.116 + Panzer III ausf.L: 10-06 Done - Page 2 Dsc00624zx

    Famo & Sd. Ah.116 + Panzer III ausf.L: 10-06 Done - Page 2 Dsc00628p

    Just to remind you (it has been a while since my last update): the diorama was inspired by this picture:

    Famo & Sd. Ah.116 + Panzer III ausf.L: 10-06 Done - Page 2 Famobridge
    ©️ Lukas Friedly 2011. Picture property of “the Archive of Modern Conflict” and made available by Stefan De Meyer & Amy McNamara.

    Hours I spend looking at that photograph: hów did that bridge collapse, whát are the soldiers in the picture doing, how I’m going to build that bridge, etc. etc. At a certain point my wife really asked me what is more important in my life: She or the Famo. Well…… (just kidding Saskia).

    Then the base is made. A joiner in my street sold me a nice piece of hard wood. The tree it came from was sawn top to bottom, so the entire board has a nice “bark edge” Structure is foam and balsa. Originally I wanted to coat the balsa with a transparent lacquer, but I screwed up with filling seams, so I had to cover the balsa with a non-transparent paint.

    Very fine sand mixed with thinned white glue is used to create the riverbank. Bridge is balsa, wheathered with laquer and oils, water is “Acrylic one”, a two component resin.

    The dio, the Famo and the Panzer III have had several treatments to blend them into the whole. Various MIG-pigments are used to simulate dust and mud. Rembrandt oil paint and Liquitex inc is used for (pin-)washes and filters. Tamiya Buff created a thin layer of light dust. First I had to do some repairs on the Famo: the box fell off the shelf it was standing on…

    That’s it for now. Next update will be when the dio is as good as finished. This means painting figures, adding accessories, fixing the whole combination on the bridge and finishing the bridge by adding more debris.

    Nice ! Long term pleasure Very Happy (the base is a bit looking like a broken Rusty boat/freighter)
    Looking forward to seeing the whole set-up !!!

    Cheers.

    Hi Richard
    looks really good - i mean the work on the bridge is excellent - the contrast of the Ger grey famo and a camo mk III ! is the tank attached to the trailer with shackle's? is there any chance it could come loose from trailer it may look even more convincing to show that the load has moved? I know they are heavy but it may add some more movement into this diorama. I know you are following photo which shows it firm - incredible really !

    best
    Mark
